Li Qi thought about it for a moment and realized the mystery, her face turned pale, "Brother Hao, I'm sorry, my sister is just jealous and has no other meaning. Don't blame her. I apologize for her, you know that our family has never messed with anyone."

"If I hadn't known this, I would have doubted whether you were a spy sent by another family. You also know that in recent years, most of the treasury's money has been used to build dams and provide disaster relief, but in fact there is not much money at all.

Lan'er worked so hard for her family in those years because Xianglou didn't make so much money at all in the first few years, and she also made up everything. Only in the past two years did she gradually make profits and maintain a balance of income and expenditure.

Outsiders know that the eldest lady of the Song family is good at managing finances, which is a good person. In fact, you all laugh at her for loving money in your heart.

"But do you know how much it costs to do good deeds every year? More than 10,000 taels of silver are used for good deeds in various places every year. My grandfather and the emperor knew very well. I made records for the emperor before, and the emperor praised me for being quick to do it and decided to have a good wife."

This is a real thing. Zilan has achieved this point. It will be difficult for the emperor to not pay attention to it. The emperor will settle the score and investigate.

Of course, everything was clear. The King of Yang and the Song family gave so many opportunities, and he felt the loyalty and duty of the two families.

Originally, the emperor had planned to let Zilan enter the palace to show his son and said he would be the royal wife, but after Mr. Yang asked for love, the emperor gave up after thinking about it again and again, not wanting to hurt the old minister's heart.

Otherwise, they would not have said the Cui family would have done it quickly. It was because Zilan was not old enough that the Cui family had made a decision, and the old minister was not willing to be the royal concubine, so he stopped thinking.

"It was my sister who was reckless."

Li Qi blushed. Can he not know what his sister is thinking? She was just trying to remind Cui Hao that the power of the Song family is not worthy of his intention.

"Forget it, Brother Li apologized. The little girl's thoughts are all about it. Don't affect your relationship for such a small matter. Just talk about it."

Seeing that the heat was almost done, Zi Lan held Cui Hao's hand and shook it, and spoke up to be a peacemaker.

Cui Hao glanced at her and his eyes became gentle, "As long as you don't get angry with me, then forget about this matter. I will avoid your sister in the future. Never affect your sister's reputation because of me."

This is equivalent to saying bluntly that if I am there in the future, don’t let your sister come out, I don’t want to be verbally irrelevant.

"I see."

Li Qi's face was very gray and very embarrassed.

Because Li Jiuniang had such an embarrassing thing, they hurriedly ate the barbecue and left. No one mentioned this matter when they had planned to go to Xianglou.

Zi Lan was so grand, "I thought I could go to Xianglou to play."

"I didn't say I didn't go if they didn't go. Let's go, I'll take you to play."

Seeing that she was very disappointed, Cui Hao immediately decided to take her to Xianglou to play.

"Really, do you take me there? I won't be able to go to play anymore after my brother leaves. After all, I'm so irritating. It's not good for me to go alone, just a girl."

Zi Lan doesn't care about her, but her surname is Song, and every move is related to the reputation of the Song family. How can she be willful?

"Of course, I asked your cousin and Yu Han to come out for a drink. We'll go and have a fun together. Don't you want to meet Yu Han? I'll take you to see you."

Cui Hao was very generous and took the initiative to introduce him to Zilan.

"Really, take me to see Yu Han."

Zi Lan was quite surprised, but she didn't expect that this person was quite generous in doing things.

"He has decided on your sister, so it doesn't matter if I take you to see people."

Cui Hao explained funnyly, am I that stingy?

"Let's go, let's go now, and we can still catch up with the event at Xianglou. I wonder if we will guess Xianglou or auction today."

Zi Lan suddenly became happy again and held his hand and chattered.

"Okay, as long as you are happy, I thought you were angry with me and didn't want to pay attention to me."

Cui Hao coaxed her like this because he was afraid that she would get angry.

Zi Lan then remembered what happened to Li Jiuniang, snorted, rolled his eyes, "I tell you that you are not allowed to mess around in the future. You dare to call you Brother Hao, it's so stingy."

He curled his lips in disgust.

"I didn't let her call that. I've seen her two or three times in total. What did she grow up together? Who grew up with her has nothing to do with me. I made my attitude at that time, and didn't hesitate at all. You were there."

Cui Hao quickly broke off his relationship, what a cat, a dog, I don’t know you or remember it, okay?

"You are smart, there is no next time. Remember that you are my Song Zilan, who dares to climb the wall. If you believe it or not, I will let my cousin beat you up."

Yang Yu was trained as a general since childhood and had a very high talent. She felt that Yang Yu could beat Cui Hao.

"You are so smart, how do you know that Yang Yu is better than me?"

Cui Hao shone bright eyes and smiled with his lips.

"I guess, he must be outstanding in being elected as the emperor's close guard. It is impossible to be selected based on his family background. My second and third cousin did not choose, but went to other departments to do things."

She judged based on her own guesses.

"That's right, Yang Yu has a high martial arts skills and a talent as a general. The emperor also values ​​it very much. He stayed by his side just to accumulate qualifications for him.

Zi Lan smiled and nodded. He gave many good things to his grandfather over the years. I believe that Yang Yu and his friends also benefited a lot, and it was predictable that they had strong abilities.

After saying this, they arrived at Xianglou. It was almost time for dinner, and the in Xianglou was already full of people.

"Do you know when my brother and the others will come?"

"I don't know, but I'll just meet in the private room you left behind."

"Oh, that's great. I haven't seen my cousin for a while. When I enter the palace, I get busy and I can't see it easily."

Zi Lan sighed with emotion, everyone is getting older and starting their careers and marriages, and they are getting more and more busy, and they can’t play like they did when they were young.

The door was closed and someone was shaking inside, and Cui Hao opened the door casually, "Yang Yu, you are so early today."

When I opened the door, I found two people sitting inside, one was Mr. Cui and the other was a middle-aged man. He was wearing brocade robe and a bright yellow jade-buckle belt around his waist. He sat upright in the center, with a very majestic demeanor.

Behind him stood a middle-aged man with a fair face, looking a little younger.

Next to him was Yang Yu and another particularly handsome young man.

Cui Hao was stunned for a moment and bowed with his fists while Zi Lan bent down quickly, "My daughter pays homage to the emperor and Grandpa Cui."

Her quick reaction failed to stop everyone.

The middle-aged man sitting in the center blinked slightly, "Hahaha! Prime Minister, your eyes are still as vicious as ever. How could you guess it is mine?"

Zi Lan calmly lowered her head and took a step forward and performed an elegant etiquette again, so that she could reply without any haste.

"By the emperor, don't wear bright yellow colors next time you go out. No one in the capital dares to wear bright yellow colors except you and the royal family. There are not many people who can accompany Grandpa Cui. The adult behind you also exposed your identity. Just by calculating the age of the prince in the royal family, you can guess it."
